Uf21 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 With the 916s I installed the headers and stingers are touching the frame. Is this right and is it ok? Quote
bluebanshee98 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 you may be able to move it a hair. i dont have any personal experience with that exhaust but my shearer stingers touch my frame and its fine. just make sure an part of the exhaust is not touching any wires cuz they will melt Quote
Larry's Shee Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 The stinger is probably ok but I would try to get the chamber off the frame. Loosen everything up, put some washers behind mount to space it out a hair. Quote
special06shee Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 my t5 header pipe was hitting my noss head.. all i did was remove the stingers and with a steady pressure pulled the header pipe away until i had the clearence needed!! worked for me! Quote
wacko2000 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 Wow those fit like shit You don't want anything rubber or touching so space everything accordingly!! Joe Quote
Uf21 Posted May 5, 2012 Author Report Posted May 5, 2012 So is there a downside of it touching the frame? I am going to space it out but was curious if it would pose a problem!? Quote
350skabarat Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 I rate it will viabrate and after a while it will wear through the pipe and make a hole. Ya and it will scratch the chrome off and if you wana sell them it cause you some problems Quote
wacko2000 Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 There no reason why you should leave it like that- space everything till its clear and thats all Why would you want the pipes rubbing the frame and possibly causing a problem- metal on metal rubbing and vibrating on eachother is gonna lead to a issue Your going to dent and ruin your pipes! Just make up some small spacers or just use some washers! But I'm thinking, and my buddy runs these pipes and they seem to fit a lot better, he doesn't have any rubbing issues! Quote
Launchpad Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 I have the DMC aliens I beleive they are the same except for the mufflers mine fit like shit too Quote

I had a 1/4 spacer and it cleared fine. OK Thanks guys Quote
